I don't have a job right now, and after the collapse of Steem price my total vote output is $567 per month at the price of $0.31 per Steem. If I were to just do curation it would be $150 per month. I can't power down until January because I'll be hit by tax I can't afford.

I don't normally self vote and in fact I've conceded a lot of curation rewards by spending my power on downvotes over the years, but until I get a job again and can afford to buy more Steem, I don't have a lot of choice.
